Welcome to freshmeat.net
acgtools is a driver for the ACG HF MultiISO RFID reader written entirely in Python and including several developer tools, including EEPROM backup/edit/restoration for enabling some of the more exotic features supported by this hardware. There are also sample applications, notably an e-Passport reader.
Changes: This release removes the dependency on hal/dbus for device detection (when hal is not available, acgtools falls back to using a configuration file), updates the e-passport example application to decode facial image data and save that to a file, and includes support for retrieving a REQA answer on tag selection if this option is set in the EEPROM.
PAC provides a GUI to configure SSH and Telnet connections, including usernames, passwords, EXPECT regular expressions, and macros. It is similar in function to SecureCRT or Putty. It is intended for people who connect to many servers through SSH. It can automate logins and command executions.
Changes: This release can detach tabbed terminals into windows and vice-versa, revamps the "find in terminal" GUI, adds lots of rewritten code, recursively auto-accepts consecutive unknown ssh_hosts connections, adds a new set of user variables (next to the "OPTIONS" frame), has a new filesystem architecture (everything now goes into "/opt/pac"), lets users tweak the tab/window title by putting <TAB_TITLE:your new title:TAB_TITLE> anywhere in "Description", adds an autonomous ".tar.gz" package, removes "Undo" due to terrible bugs, adds many little GUI improvements, and makes minor bugfixes.
betterFORM allows easy creation of highly dynamic Web 2.0 user interfaces with attractive controls and layout. You can add validations, calculations, actions, and events to build complete Web applications in a declarative way.

Changes: This release adds support for the new product RED (Remote Ethernet Device), which acts as a long Ethernet cable to a branch office, requiring no configuration or management. The ability to totally remove (de-proxy) sites from the HTTPS filter using new functionality for exceptions has been added, and exceptions for the Web can be made by category. There's now support for hosting a Proxy PAC file, the ability to remove some HTTP events completely from logging and reporting, and an Uplink monitor/action feature and wildcard SMTP routing support. This version includes also some bugfixes.
CarvFS is a user space FUSE filesystem aimed at computer forensic tools that process disk and/or memory dump images or other large data files. The filesystem allows CarvPath-aware tools to use CarvPath annotations as a way to designate partitions, files, alternate streams, processes etc. within a disk or memory image as a string, making them available trough the filesystem as a pseudo file that can be handed to other tools. This removes the need to copy the information out of the disk image and reduces storage requirements.
Changes: This release adds a new CarvFS module for mounting raw local block devices intended for triage tools and applications.
rsstool is a tool to read, parse, merge, and write RSS (and Atom) feeds. It has some other functions built-in like text, HTML, or property file output, or templates with custom tags to insert RSS feeds into pages that could be uploaded to a server that supports only static HTML.
Changes: This release adds a new field to the database structure, rsstool_media_duration (if rsstool finds durations for some kind of media in the feed, it will parse them into rsstool_media_duration, in seconds), --enc=ENCODING, which overrides the encoding specified in the RSS header (useful for some broken RSS feeds), --filter=LOGIC, sometimes referred to as implied Boolean LOGIC (use this to remove items from the RSS feed before output), --nosort, to not sort items by date (on by default), --parse=FILE|URL to generate an RSS feed from a random HTML document, some code cleanups and fixes, support for Atom 1.0 feeds (they worked before, but now it says so in the usage, too), and xmlget as a download on the Web site (accesses XML files using the XPath syntax). It deprecates the --joomla and --dragonfly options (replaced with scripts in contrib/) and --sqlold (and support for the other old database structures). It removes the --curl option (it is always the default now, if libcurl is available) and the --wget option (you may want to rely on the curl support or use wget from a script instead).
Jodd is general purpose Java utility library. It enriches JDK with many powerful and feature rich utilities. Jodd helps with everyday tasks and makes code more robust and reliable. Special attention is put into creating code that is reusable and as fast as possible while still keeping it compact (under 500 KB). Jodd Wot is a bundle of lightweight application frameworks, under 300 KB. It was designed following the CoC, DRY, and SCS principles.
Changes: This is one of the most important releases, since all Jodd frameworks have been used in production together. As a result, several bugs were fixed, some important changes were made, and more power was added in the framework.
t-prot (TOFU Protection) is a filter which improves the readability of email messages and Usenet posts by hiding some of their annoying parts. The annoyances it handles include mailing list footers, signatures, TOFU, sequences of blank lines, and repeated punctuation. TOFU is an acronym that stands for "Text oben, Fullquote unten", a German reference to the practice of adding just a few lines of original text and quoting a complete message below them.
Changes: Some small documentation fixes have been applied.
BalanceNG is a modern software IP load balancing solution. It is small, fast, and easy to use and setup. It offers session persistence, different distribution methods (Round Robin, Random, Weighted Random, Least Session, Least Bandwidth, Hash, Agent, and Randomized Agent) and a customizable UDP health check agent in source code. It supports VRRP to set up high availability configurations on multiple nodes. It supports SNMP, integrating the BALANCENG-MIB with Net-SNMPD. It implements a very fast in-memory IP-to-location database, allowing powerful location-based server load-balancing.
Changes: A new parameter "psvrelearn" allows you to disable passive updates to the ARP table. The Ubuntu JeOS VMware virtual appliance has been updated accordingly. The manual has been updated accordingly.
mount_dd is a small tool for mounting a raw image with a GUI for Gnome. You can mount it in read-write or read-only mode. ISO, .dd, .img, and .00x formats are supported.

Changes: The Windows line separator is used if it is detected in an existing file.
WOSH (Wide Open Smart Home) is a message-oriented middleware for controlling and automating a smart home. It comes with working services and devices. WOSH is an open multi-platform C++ framework. Its architecture is service (bundles) oriented and designed for distributed (cloud) computing. WOSH ships with library source, many services, and some applications (a server, a trayicon remote controller, and a GUI full-controller). Some features provided by its micro-kernel are a multi-user system with access policies, a centralized database manager and system monitor, and automatic network management and masquerading (on TCP). Some of the implemented services are: multimedia audio playback, monitor and control of X10 devices, remote control using instant messaging, and a remote control using SMS and call notification.
Changes: This is a new milestone. It is more stable for allocations, threading and timeouts, logging, and state machines. Performance was improved by updating variant and using less implicit deep-copy. Scalability was increased with macros and clear interfaces. A lot of code has been redesigned to conform to the DRY paradigm. Standardization was applied to the code, such as containers "using" STL calls. The library architecture now uses static initialization and dynamic allocation. Networking now supports more libraries. Persistence is still work in progress.
autober is a language for generating BER decoders. It's different from an ASN.1 compiler in that it's much simpler and it only deals with BER-encoded messages. It is intended for smart card and RFID applications where much of the data stored on these devices is, in-fact, BER-encoded TLV data. The language is designed to be very similar to the template definitions found in the specifications for smart card and RFID applications.
Changes: This release generates a functioning C module for e.g. an e-passport EF.DG2 BER object (biometric information). It should work fine for other applications of similar complexity.
Monkey HTTP Daemon is a small (50KB), powerful, and really fast Web server for Linux. It uses a hybrid networking model based on epoll and threads, which makes it scalable and capable of attending thousands of clients per second.
Changes: This release runs 8%-10% faster than RC1. A bug in the backward traversal directory check has been fixed. A non-freed buffer for client IP and minor other bugs have been fixed.
PeerSec MatrixSSL is an embedded SSL and TLS implementation designed for small footprint devices and applications requiring low overhead per connection. The library is less than 50K on disk with cipher suites. It includes SSL and TLS client and server support, session resumption, and implementations of RSA, AES, 3DES, ARC4, SHA1, and MD5. The source is well documented and contains portability layers for additional operating systems, cipher suites, and cryptography providers.
Changes: TLS protocol support, an AES cipher suite, and a new zero-copy API. Blocking and non-blocking example HTTPS applications and test suite. Faster and smaller RSA cryptography: a full SSL/TLS handshake can now be completed in as little as 10KB of RAM. File reorganization and a new version scheme. Additional Project File Formats for IDEs, and new documentation.
Floola is an application to efficiently manage your iPod or your Motorola mobile phone (any model supporting iTunes) under Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows. It can be run directly from your iPod and needs no installation. It supports all commonly used iPod features including photos, artwork, podcasts, and smart playlists. It automatically converts any incompatible audio or video file so that you can copy almost any file to it. It even allows adding YouTube and MySpace videos with a single click. It also makes it possible to keep your Google calendars synchronized.
Changes: nano5G and shuffle 3G support. An "add this artwork to items in album" feature was added. A database update fixes some errors. Various translations have been updated. Scrollbars have been added to the smart playlists edit window. An issue where some files would not play entirely after an edit operation has been fixed. Files can now be copied over from a network mapped drive.
